Last year,
I had the chance during the Open House to visit this centre, known as Maggie CentreFor those who have not hear about it, Maggie´s
Centres are a network of caring centres in Great Britain, which aim to help
anyone who has been affected by cancer. They provide a caring environment,
support, information and practical advice. This one is located in west London,
close to Charing Cross Hospital, and it was designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour +Partners.

simple shapewhich provides austerity,protection
andstrength.When you get inside, you find a great sensitivity and spatial richness, it
is a place that conveys much harmony, foster care and warmth with its courtyards,
interior gardens, double height, flexible rooms, a large terrace, a floating roof
and vegetation as a key material in the complex.
